Ready for 2014

Yeah, I'm ready. After six months of learning to run. I am ready to finish losing the weight I don't need and get into racing shape. I missed my window of opportunity to run in the marathon I had planned to run in. No problems. I was pushing a bit to run a marathon in 9 months off the couch anyway, but I am a bit like that. I do hope to push my paces down into something respectable...while staying injury free?!

This is a year of not only running pursuits, but deep spiritual insight. Why share this with a bunch of total strangers? Because you won't judge me or create daily life chaos over the sharing... This is my last year sub-40, and I want the next 40 to be one of peaceful slow learning, rather than the rag tag, eating life lessons by being force fed. I will decide the bites I take and don't. My mother says life doesn't begin until 40.... Here is to the beginning of life.

Also, remember the too's - too much, too soon. Progress comes to runners who are patient. Injuries come to runners who aren't! Good luck in 2014 and to making your second 40 years better so you can enjoy your third 40 years!
